Nooooo stick with it. Stay with me on the dark side.

In other news I got a nice message today after beating someone saying:

"I see someone has got access to their mummys credit card"

Peanuts I'm interested in 5221 because some guy absolutely nailed me with it a couple of days ago.

How do you play it? My problem is that I never know when to play the long ball forward to give my front 3 1-on-1s against the opposition defence :(

So they always seem to get loads of men back and I find it hard to score...
 
Whenever you have the ball, in whatever situation just long ball chip it - FIFA will make sure its accurate and even if a defender gets it because of first touch youll take it off them and be clear to score, then just press shoot, to add finesse ensure the GK flaps at it and deflects it into goal anyway...

FIFA 13 - the pinnacle of football games :p. Give me Gazza 2 ;)

EDIT: Unsurprisingly the webapp is down for maintenance - does that extend to FUT?
EDIT2: Hmm its up again :p

It's not quite that simple but I like to just move the ball quickly, lots of passes forward say CB to RB to CM to RF then boom your in.

first of all, get rid of Maxwell, you need nothing but PACE in your LWB and RWB and Maxwell is slower than stephen hawking. get marcelo and either mariano or jonathon for your rwb.

or Clichy if you use Luiz beside him and ramires in front, Clichy is the best LB in the game.

what i normally do is, as soon as i get the ball pass to any one of my front 3, then i either 1-2 it past the defence, or through ball it or run down the wing and cross or cut in and shoot/pass. basically if you pass it quick enough to your strikers, it basically means it's 3 on 3 every time, unless the opposition also play 5 at the back, doesnt matter if they have a 4 at the back formation, 1 defender will always run forward, expose that gap.

also look at the oppositions team and look for potential weak spots, for example if i see some muppet using maxwell at LB, i know hes slow, so im just going to keep raping him down the right wing with my 90 pace winger, simples.

i also sometimes fly down the wings with my LWB or RWB, basically as a second winger, it works really well with clichy, he is a rocket
 
Whilst it genuinely pains me to agree with Sonny, he's right. It's the same with people who use one quick CB and one slow one, you just target their side. Defensively, this game is all about pace and strength, having high tackling and marking seems to make so little difference.
